Smash that Mash Fate/Grand Orderis the hot new mobile title on the market, though it’s been out in Japan for a while now. Despite an iffy translation and a formidable grind (the version we have is even toned down from how it was at Japanese launch time), it seems to have captured the heart of many an anime nerd with a decent battle system, cute-girl interpretations of historical figures, and a bonkers story mode....
